I noticed that Hobby Boss have announced a future release of a Leopard 2A 6M, as used by Canadians Forces in Afghanistan. Whilst I don’t know much about the quality of they’re other Leopards, and they are advertising it with a picture of the real thing and some CAD drawings images it should make an impressive model.I presume it comes with RPG cage protection.

Heh Paul !

Best thing will be to take the Tamiya Leo 2A6 and upgrade it with the HB parts.
Since I definitely know that I shall not mess around with Slat-Armour made of PE thats probably the best approach.
I think they showed a finished model on the Nueremberg Toyfair this year, the pics should be floating around on the net.

Cheers
Christopher
